Version 1[Verse] D G D A Daddy sits on the front porch swingin', lookin' out on a vacant field D It used to be filled with burly tobacco now he knows it never will G D A My brother found work in Indiana, my sister's a nurse at the old folks home D Momma's still cookin' too much for supper and me, I've been a long time gone [Chorus] G D A G D A Been a long time gone, no I ain't hoed a row since I don't know when A D G A D Long time gone and it ain't comin' back again [Verse] D G D A Delia plays that old church piano, sittin' out on her daddy's farm D She always thought that we'd be together, Lord, I never meant to do her harm G D A Said she could heard me singin' in the choir, me I heard another song D I caught wind and hit the road runnin' and Lord, I've been a long time gone [Chorus] G D A G D A Been a long time gone, Lord, I ain't had a prayer since I don't know when A D G A D E B E Long time gone and it ain't comin' back again [Bridge] C Now me, I went to Nashville, tryin' to be the big deal.

[Chorus] G D A G D A Long time gone, no I ain't hit the roof since I don't know when A D G A Long time gone and it ain't comin' back.. G D A G D A I said a long time gone, no I ain’t honked a horn since I don’t know when A D G A D Long time gone and it ain’t comin’ back again A I said a long time, long time, long time gone, oh it’s been a long time D A Long time, long time, long time gone D Oh it's been a long time gone A D Long time, long time, long time gone.
